"A thriving household depends on the use of seasonal produce and the application of common sense." -Olivier de Serres, French agronomist
I love hummus, but a lot of recipes and versions you find in the grocery store are pretty calorie dense because they use a lot of tahini (sesame seed butter).
Look to maximize the key flavor of a calorie dense ingredient like the tahini without using too much. By combining less tahini with the non-fat yogurt it's easy to bring down the calorie count and still end up with a rich and creamy hummus.

This recipe can easily be multiplied and keeps well in the refrigerator for 4 - 5 days if tightly covered.
Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans, but reserve some of the liquid from the can.
Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until almost smooth.
Add the aquafaba (the liquid from the beans) a tablespoon at a time if the hummus is too thick for your taste.
Chill.
